    Abstract: An intravascular material delivery dilation catheter having a pair of longitudinally spaced inflatable balloons with a drug delivery region defined therebetween. The catheter is ideally suited for use after a PTCA procedure, wherein the proximate balloon seals the blood vessel while the distal balloon is uniquely contoured when inflated to define fluid communication paths therepast and proximate a blood vessel to be treated. The distal balloon, when inflated, has four lobes but could also be textured. Each lobe is separated from the next by a groove, which groove in combination with the blood vessel inner wall forms a fluid communication path therebetween. Upon inflation of both balloons in a blood vessel, a medicament such as heparin can be injected, via the drug delivery region between the inflated balloons, wherein the medicament flows past the distal balloon at a selected rate. Accordingly, a medicament can be injected directly to a treatment site rather than injected as a bolus dose, thus, a smaller dosage may be employed to minimize side effects. Alternatively, perfusion can be accomplished by only partially inflating the proximate balloon to constrict flow therepast, or eliminating the proximate balloon entirely, where the drug delivery region is disposed upstream of the contoured distal balloon.

    Abstract: A catheter for crossing an occluding lesion with an inflatable balloon and dilating the lesion includes an inner tube that defines a longitudinal axis. The balloon includes a distal section that is bonded to the tube's distal end, a working section, and a conically shaped distal transition section connecting the working and distal section. A plurality of rigid ribs are spaced around the circumference of the balloon near the catheter's distal end. Each rib includes a first elongated portion attached to the balloon's distal section and aligned substantially parallel with the longitudinal axis. A second portion extending from the first portion and at an angle thereto is attached to and lies along the surface of the balloon's distal transition section. The plurality of ribs combine to simulate a stiff, tapered surface that can be wedged into the occluding lesion to create a passageway to cross the lesion with the balloon.

    Abstract: A balloon catheter, and method of making the same, which includes an elongated shaft, and an expandable member affixed to the distal portion of the elongated shaft such that a section of the elongated shaft extends through at least a portion of the expandable member. The elongated shaft includes a radiopaque portion that includes a radiopaque material disposed in a non-metallic coating material. In some embodiments, the radiopaque portion is positioned adjacent the expandable member such that the position of at least a portion of the expandable member (or a stent disposed thereon) can be identified or determined within the vasculature in which it is deployed using an appropriate imaging technique, such as fluoroscopy. Additionally, in some embodiments, the radiopaque portion can define one or more raised areas on the elongated shaft adjacent the expandable member. In such embodiments, the raised area or areas in the radiopaque portion can function as mounting bodies for mounting a stent.
